Question:
He says: I think a lot about the sects and worries that have befallen the Muslims, and what increases my [distress] is that all the misguided sects are clinging to one another, except us. Because of this, I have lost the delight of worship. Is there a cure you can prescribe for us?

Answer:
The cure is that you seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaytan, leave off the whispers, and act in obedience to Allah the Exalted with insight. The evil of people is upon them. The evil of people is upon them. You are not burdened with the affairs of people. But if you have the ability for da'wah (calling others to Islam) and enjoining good and forbidding evil, then you do what you can, benefiting your brothers and benefiting the people. But if you do not have the ability, then limit yourself to your own self, act in obedience to Allah, and leave off the disobedience of Allah. Yes.
